Meanwhile Australia opens massive new fossil fuel export projects with vastly more emissions than all the pacific states combined.

Australia is an out-of-contol petrostate, drowning its Pacific neighbours, and should not be allowed to host COP31.

It's pretty clear that a major tactic from US tech companies, data centre developers and lobbyists is trying to present data centres as clean tech virtually identical to batteries, solar panels, transmission lines.

That creates a framing where community backlash can be dismissed as hollow NIMBYism

Gaza saw its first major rainfall of the season today. Within minutes, people were submerged and tents holding families and children flooded. This is slow death. There is no justification for why proper shelter that can withstand the elements is not being allowed in.

This is what genocide looks like.

Yet still, Australia does nothing.
What's left of Gaza:

Black—urban neighborhoods the IDF has fully demolished with earthmovers etc.

White—undemolished urban neighborhoods (with varying levels of major damage from 2 years of bombing, artillery, and ground fighting)

Yellow—IDF-controlled (white areas liable to further demolition)
